As for me, God forbid that I should sin against the Lord, in 
ceasing to pray for you—I Sam. xii. 23. 


WEEKLY PRAYER CYCLE FOR THOSE STUDYING THE 
WHY AND HOW OF FOREIGN MISSIONS. 


Sunday.—Pray for the Church everywhere that all may so 
realize the Love of God that they will gladly give their lives to 
teach all nations; and that those who cannot go to foreign lands may 
by their prayers share in the work; that in this generation all may 
hear of Christ. 


Monday.—Pray for the Church at home and its Board of 
Missions that grace and wisdom may be given both to choose and 
send, and support and strengthen all the missionaries who go to 
carry the Gospel to all parts of the world. 


Tuesday.—Pray for all Christian missionaries and their families, 
that they may be kept sound in body, mind and spirit; that the 
power of Christ may be made perfect in all their weakness; that 
they may be given tact and love to overcome all human opposition ; 
that their zeal may increase and triumph over monotony and dis- 
couragement; that their prayer life may equal their opportunities for 
service. 


Wednesday.—Pray for the evangelistic work, that by both native 
and foreign missionaries Christ may be preached with power; for 
the medical work, that it may dispel prejudice and win friendship ; 
for the educational work, that it may develop character and train 

teaders; that the spirit of Christ may be manifest in all these forms 
of work. 


Thursday.—Pray for the native Churches; for their leaders; for 
those recently won and sorely tempted; for those attending the 
services, schools and dispensaries; for those under stirrings of con- 
science, that they may be brought to Christ. 


Friday.—Pray for the great multitudes yet unevangelized, that 
they may recognize that the missionaries are their best friends; for 
the women and children living in distant lands, that they may come 
to know the fullness of their inheritance in Christ, that there may 
be created for them Christian homes, and that women here may go 
in great numbers to bring this to pass. 


Saturday.—Pray for the missionary work in confronting its great 
secular problems; that the forces of civilization may promote right- 
eousness; that those from Christian lands, and especially navy, army 
and government officers, may set an example worthy of their priv- 
ileges. Pray for this study of missions, that it may awaken our con- 
sciences, stimulate us to want to know more, to pray more, and to 
find thro prayer and Bible Study God’s plan for us and for the world.
